i won´t even try to write about what i've been up to...i've barely updated since guatemala.

the good news is, i have been writing lots in my diary. i have had so much to reflect on, and so much to make sense of. the most unfamiliar things i have encountered during my trip havent been the unknown people and places, but rather, my own emotions, new directions in thinking, new ways of seeing things.

i am in oaxaca, mexico. i wasn't supposed to come this far, but at the last minute, under funny and emotionally dramatic circumstances, i decided there was nothing to lose (except for some of those little pieces of paper that float in and out of lives - aka. money). i am so glad i came, this country...words can't describe...it's magical.

i have to go home in a week, but i am definitely coming back to mexico.

i am planning a day long frida kahlo pilgrimage for when i get to the capital.
